Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Basil Peppery herb with an aniseed lift. Culinary but wearable.
- Artemisia Bitter and silvery-herbal. Wormwood, the backbone of a fougère.
Heart
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
